Greenwood Creek Boreal Bog

I have made a number of changes …

  • The birdfeeders are now a “public place” on Google Maps (just off Lake Cty. 2 south of Greenwood Lake). Assuming I am able to convince Google that I am the owner of said feeders, I will add updates for the public page.
  • I pointed a trailcam at the feeders for about two days. Two videos are given below.  This morning I shifted the trailcam about one mile to the actual  bog area where I have seen Lynx and Moose tracks.
  • If you wish to drive closer to the Bog, I removed a huge tree which was blocking US Forest Road #813. Assuming you have an all wheel or 4 Wheel Drive vehicle, drive very slowly for 6/10 of a mile. Park at the rock pile. Do NOT drive beyond this point as the road gets bad fast with wet spots that even a 4-Wheel drive vehicle might not like. From the parking spot the bog is only a few hundred yards (a one mile hike from the bird feeders next to Lake County #2)
  • If you need a bathroom, there is a US Forest Service Outhouse in very good condition at the White Pine Picnic Area (normally also very clean), which is 5.5 miles south of the bird feeders via Lake County #2.

  1. I was just at the feeders yesterday and walked down the forest road toward the bog. A big tree has fallen blocking the road about 400 yards from the parking area near the feeders. I walked another few hundred yards but did not get all the way to the bog. There was too much water on the road and surrounding area to get by, and I didn’t have the right boots. …maybe next trip.

    1. Darn. I had already cleared others trees. Back to work again. Will bring the large bowsaw up there when I visit tomorrow. Thanks for the notification.
